Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is a rare illness of unknown origin that develops painful ophthalmoplegia combined with ocular motor nerve palsies. Neuroimaging or biopsy is required to confirm granulomatous swelling in the cavernous sinus. We present a woman with ophthalmoplegia and hypoesthesia on the left side of the head. MRI confirmed diagnosis.
